Biggest request for 2.3 or 2.4: Please let us make money.

I'm not competing with anyone but the thargoids, and don't see why I'd ever do otherwise, we need to be working TOGETHER, not competing. That is so petty
 
Yes, anyone who disagrees with the stated opinion that credits are too hard o come by and are insufficient to progress are clearly trillionaire exploiters who want to surpress new PS4 players.

Makes a lot of sense if you're the type to burn cars if you don't get your way.

I have two ships at the moment and $280 mil CR in cash. On of my ships is a $480mil CR anaconda. I earned my CR by running missions, bounty hunting, exploring, and CGs. Just taking random missions and farting around nets $1 - $2 mil per hour easy, and if I want to earn my rebuy ($18 to $22 mil depending on loadout), there are any number of ways to do that in less than an hour, without using exploits.

Whether they should be higher or not is something I really don't care about either way. To say that they are too low to play the game, afford and outfit one of the big three, or place new players at a disadvantage is simply wrong at best and a flat out lie at worst.
 
For me personally, 2.3 and prior - FFFFUUUUNNNNN, sky's the limit, extravagant, escapist fun, loved every moment

2.4 - don't feel any difference coming home from being over worked and under paid and playing, more of the same dreary crap
 
I just both my Anaconda by using a way to make money that was not globaly shown by a youtube video. See Frontier is a full we will always find a way to make more money then we are suppose to because that is the goal. That is the goal in life that is the goal in this game. Make more money get all the ships. Get more ships get more upgrades.

Smart people will always find the most efficient ways to make money. Just because Youtubers post them on the net then everyone laughs at your game you then decide to "fix" it. Essentially ing everyone off since it was possible on the first place and only the lucky few managed to use it.

Do what you want with this empty vessel. In the end you created an MMO that everyone would rather play in Solo mode... now that is the real burn here.
 
ANCALAGON, not exactly sure where u stand but careful how u use the word exploit...at least be specific and back it up with proof from fdev that it was considered such cause some of the nerfs have squeaky wheel pacification written all over them.
 
Well said digital.

I want escapism and thrills from this or any extracurricular activity

And the thought of someone (other devs or critics especially) laughing at this game negatively, for any reason is just jelly. Pure JELLY, this game is epic, period

Well done trin! Hats off and ENJOY those creds! Be EXTRAVAGANT!

Which use of the word "exploit" are you referring to?

I use the word in the conext of anything that FDev have stated to not be working as intended, and the obvious circumstances that people flame against, such as Quince/Rhea/Robidigo/Road to Riches or whatever.

I see a mission that looks interesting and I take it. I see a CG that looks fun, I take it. I get bored or run out of short term objectives, I go exploring. Have plenty of money.
 
Personally, I'm fine with credits as they are. I can make enough to keep me going. But I also couldn't care less if the rewards were increased. I get to fly the same ships either way, and that's the bit I find fun... :)

My hunch is that the anti-creditors have ALREADY ammassed trillions and either want the newcomers, PS4 here, to suffer, or can't stand the idea of the newcomers "arriving" quicker than they...both of which are petty, lame excuses for petty people.
I bet if everyone's cumulative earnings to date were public, we'd get FAR less resistance and ridicule.
Were all in this together, if u can't see this, grow up.

Wrong. I have all of the Big 3 ships, a Python, and over 180 million in-pocket right now, with two Elites and one on the way (if I can get myself over the rage at learning having an SLF = half experience).

Wanna guess how many exploits it took to get me here?

0. I didn't even trade in Imperial Slaves. Nor did I visit any of the "Neutron Fields" for Exploration. (In fact all I did was 2 expeditions really, one to Sag A* and one to Colonia to help restore Jaques.)

Play the game normally - actually learn about the game you are playing instead of trying to skip it - and you will make just as much credits as any dumb "get rich quick" Reddit bandwagon. Stop pretending the game is ruined because exploits get taken away.

Nonsense. It's your own fault if you're feeling that way while you are playing, Elite is absolutely about what *you* decide to do with it. Change what you are doing. Learn more about the game itself instead of refreshing Reddit every 5 minutes to see if there's some new exploit bandwagon to hop onto.

To be fair, I've just spent a litttle time outside of Maia and idk if it's just been so long or what. But it honestly looks like pay has improved across the board a bit and if so, THANK YOU.

As well, I complain simply because I love this game. If I didn't care, as is with destiny 2 which doesn't suit my fancy, I wouldn't say anything, which I haven't...it's just not important enough to me, it's nothing like this game.
 
SEE WHAT I MEAN!!! Squeaky wheel brigade!!!! If u like it great!!! If y play one way GREAT! No ones telling u otherwise! But u sure as hell wanna tell others how to play and enjoy.

By just saying Quince, ur lumping a bunch a things together partner. I never heard anything official from fdev regarding planetary scan stacking as an exploit, CHIEF, in fact quite the contrary, CHIEF. It wasn't until the squeaky wheel wouldn't !!! did something happen. Hence, my request STANDS

Uhm....what?
 
And u few, bashing those wanting better pay r the vast minority, not one person I play with feels as u do and that's between 25 and 40 cmdrs...hence the disconnect.
 
U heard me, if that makes no sense to u, ur talking to hear urself talk.

I'm right chief, and u KNOW it, otherwise uda backed up ur exploit claims with fact instead of resorting to a petty personal attack

There's nothing wrong with wanting a little opulent, extravagant escapism from an excellent video game. Most of us sure ain't gonna come anywhere close in real life...and here u guys are making it out to be HIGH TREASON. IT MAKES NO SENSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
I lied, I did know one guy like u guys in the very beginning. He was the quince passenger mission EXPLOIT and when someone else in the chat party caught on (not me, I was still crashing my sidey into the station) and joined him. He RAGED THE F OUT, it was insane. Haven't heard from him since...and hope never too. He was a petty fool.

That's not fair, lemme rephrase. I did know one guy not like everyone else I play with...I'll leave my original mistake in tact to take ownership of the mistake.
